The Fundación Daniel y Nina Carasso awards the Daniel Carasso Fellowship to outstanding early-stage researchers engaged in the promotion of sustainable food systems. The Fellowship consists of a research career development grant to carry out a research project at a Spanish university or research centre for a two-year period. The Fundación Daniel y Nina Carasso invites established researchers (i.e., tenured professor, full professor, tenured scientist or equivalents) at Spanish universities or research centres (public or private non-profit) to nominate candidates. The rules establish that a nominator can only nominate one candidate, and each candidate can only be nominated by one nominator. Self-nominations will not be accepted.
